It's a nice gotcha, but Flynn isn't an attorney and is known for saying many crazy things even in his field of expertise.

  He hasn't been offered immunity yet, he's the one asking guilt. By the logic of his own quote he only want it if he was guilty.

    His lawyers could have convinced him to ask for immunity if there was even a slight chance of legal trouble. He may also only have some minor dirt to spill, so he's happy throwing some staffer under the bus.

      Yes, we know that. His hypocrisy still reeks. And great. Give him immunity and get him in front of the Senate and House committees. If, as you assert, he has only minor dirt on some small player that will come out. And the immunity itself will save everyone time and money.

    I'm not so sure... Thinking about the Valerie Plame leak case, Scooter Libby the VP's CoS was convicted for giving false testimony and obstruction. Those convictions stem from conflicting statements about how he knew Valerie Plame worked for the CIA. If you were Flynn and thought you had a card that would keep you out of jail to play in a game where if you mis-remember how you know a seemingly trivial piece of information you go to jail... would'nt you try to play that card?
